Part of the TPE family of polymers,Thermoplastic Vulcanizates (TPVs)areadvanced,high-performance elastomers that combine the best attributes of vulcanized rubberand thermoplastics. Other tests, which looked at whether the surfaces of the profiles bore the marks of radiation-induced degradation, showed the material surface appears homogeneous. Blow molding: Santoprene TPV can be blow molded in single layer, multi-layer, exchange blow, sequential 3D, suction blow, flashless extrusion blow, injection blow and press-blow molding processes.

Reed Rubber Products uses a collection of material gradesto meetindustryrequirementsas well aseach customersspecificcomponent andproduct system needs. Part of the TPE family of polymers, TPV is the closest in elastomeric properties to EPDM thermoset rubber.
